Oh I see. Sorry for this. Your username sure is "generic" though and that could have led me to even more "trouble".

I'm surprised no one wrote anything here YET, so: I'm a history buff, theory buff and orchestration buff I got performed just once... Am a period composer (of late 19th century and early 20th century dances) Brass aficionado and woodwind aficionado Dance music impresario for that matter Amorous romanticist Programmatic composer I don't know if 1930's cartoon music counts for "film buff" or "film music enthusiast" but I am a buff of that And I almost composed the soundtrack to a pastiche of that but that thing was cancelled so I'm not even a debatable "film composer"

"Hola Viola!", A Solo Viola Piece (Of Which Do Exist)
Well, yes, trills and tremolos sound rather bad in MuseScore Studio when output with the default "MS Basic" MIDI playback, but I don't like the custom MuseSounds engine either as it's VERY hard to balance dynamically and it's still rather unpolished in some fields where MS Basic is ironically superior. I'd prefer to use VSTs if not the fact using them in MuseScore is even harder than both of the previous options so I have to export the MIDI and use something like FL Studio or REAPER to fix the simple problem. VSTs still may struggle with trills and tremolos though 😉 In the end I just thought MS Basic would be fine this time. If you want I can use a VST to re-export though, no problem on that.

"March Hare", March for Wind Band
Good afternoon! I already wrote 50 or 60 marches for piano and this is my 3rd or 4th one for some type of ensemble and the 1st one actually for wind band. Feedback much appreciated. The score is in Russian and I'm too lazy to translate it, but here's the instrumentation: Piccolo; 2 flutes; 3 clarinets in B-flat; Bass clarinet in B-flat; 2 alto saxophones; Tenor saxophone; Baritone saxophone; 3 trumpets in B-flat; Flugelhorn; 4 ["French"] horns; 2 trombones; Bass trombone; Euphonium; Tuba; Timpani[1]; Glockenspiel; Hand cymbals; [Other] Percussion[2]. [1.] The timpani are tuned Ab, Eb, C, Bb for I1 through B2 and then Db, Bb, Ab, Eb, but after I3 they switch back to Ab, Eb, C, Bb. [2.] The percussion consists of triangle, snare drum, tambourine and bass drum. The score is condensed as follows: Piccolo; 2 flutes; Clarinets in B-flat 1 and 2; Clarinet in B-flat 3; Bass clarinet in B-flat; 2 alto saxophones; Tenor and baritone saxophone; 2 trumpets in B-flat; Trumpet in B-flat 3 and Flugelhorn; ["French"] horns 1 and 3; ["French"] horns 2 and 4; 2 trombones; Bass trombone; Euphonium; Tuba; Timpani Glockenspiel; Hand cymbals; Other percussion.

A musical joke. This is a revision where pizzicato trills were omitted.
